Tuesday Talk

I have a really sweet little card to share today and I'm entering it into the CAS Mix Up November Challenge.




Here's my card:


I went to the NEC Show in Birmingham earlier this month and as usual got completely entranced by watching Tracey demo her gorgeous Lavinia stamps. I bought quite a few, then went back and bought some more and also invested in a gelly plate. That's how I applied the background colours on top of the embossed grasses.


I masked a circle for the moon and used a dry baby wipe to add some ink shading. I also glistened up the moon, pixie, stars and grasses with a sparkly gelly roll pen.

Supplies:
Stamps: Lavinia, pixie, stars & sentiment
Inks: Colorbox, green apple; SU, pool party
Embossing folder: magazine freebie
Pen: Sakura gelly roll, clear star

Thanks so much for visiting today, it's always fun to have your company.

And keep crafting!

  3. This is a sweet card Jane! I love how you've coloured the embossed grass with a gelli plate pull. So very cool. I love how it left a white shadow on one side which makes the grass appear even more textured. Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up!
